CHEF JOHN'S SHRIMP COCKTAIL
Before I knew much about food or dining out, I knew that if they brought shrimp cocktails to the table as an appetizer, we were eating at a 'fancy' restaurant. I'm sure I enjoyed the shrimp, but what I really loved was dipping the crackers in the spicy, horseradish-spiked cocktail sauce.

SHRIMP COCKTAIL
During the '60s, shrimp cocktail was one of the most popular party foods around. And it is still a crowd favorite. It's the one appetizer that I serve for every special occasion as well as for munchie meals. -Peggy Allen, Pasadena, California

- Mix together the ketchup, horseradish, tabasco, gin, celery salt, salt and lemon juice. Chill until ready to serve. Stir in parsley right before serving.
- Peel and devein shrimp, leaving tails attached. Place peels into a large pot. Add water, 1 tablespoon of the salt, wine or vermouth, peppercorns, coriander seeds, bay leaves, onion, tarragon and lemon. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit 30 minutes more, then strain broth through a fine sieve into a fresh pot.
- Bring stock to a boil, then remove from heat. Add shrimp and cover. Leave for 3 minutes (still off the heat -- the shrimp "poach" in the residual heat and remain amazingly tender).
- Fill a large bowl with ice water and the remaining tablespoon salt. Add shrimp and leave until just opaque, 3 minutes or a shade more if the shrimp are very big. Chill in fridge (I usually wrap in paper towels and put in a gallon zip top bag) until ready to serve.
